I'm such a fan of eat's downtown location so was eager to try the new Summerlin location on this last trip. I'm very happy to say that it's the same quality of food but with no line for a seat! ... well, on a weekday anyway, haven't tried it on a weekend which I bet is crowded.
We got here right as they opened and were the only ones in the restaurant for most of the meal. The interior space is larger than the downtown location with some funky decor. The service was also super friendly and welcoming.
We both got the Chicken Fried Steak and both thought it was really good, nice crispy coating with a creamy pork sausage gravy. The one critique about the dish when compared to the same dish at the downtown location are the country potatoes, while plump with a soft interior, didn't have that slightly charred exterior and caramelized onions and garlic like the ones at the downtown restaurant has, I love those potatoes.
Another thing to talk about, the toast that came with the breakfast was worth mentioning. The sourdough toast and the toasted whole wheat english muffin were both better than the toast you'd normally get at other places. I don't think I've ever mentioned in a review the side of toast that comes with a meal before so that should be an indicator of how good they were.
There are quite a few uninspired restaurants in this area so Eat is a great addition to Summerlin.
